Predominant? Possibly. Very possibly.
But Belichick has always flexed between the 34 and the 43. He never seems anywhere near as excited as us fans about which front he is using, and even going back to the Giants days there were times when Lawrence Taylor put his hand down.
Last year Pats were in the 3-4 less than 50% of the time, so it wasn't exactly the overwhelming percentage of snaps anyway. With our inability to find a good pass rushing OLB, the size/strength/speed of Mayo, who can definitely play classic MLB, and the players we have on the line, he may very well be opting for more 4-3.
